FPV Video - My favourite damper for video - MoonGel

- I have tried many things over the years to get rid of the dreaded video 'jello effect' in video from a multi-rotor. I've tried foam, tape, elastic bands, rubber mounts, a custom TBS 'Loveseat' but the most versatile for me is the humble MoonGel.
In this video I show how I use it and the effect it has on the video.
Thanks for watching, please comment and subscribe.
Happy flying!
Great idea!...I didn't even think of the moon gel and I've been dampening drums for years..thank you!
nice!
Seems to work well. Use really good props with perfect balance and tracking is better. If you combined the two, would be flawless.
It's a whole build video, bit boring, but anti dampening works ;-) Rotor bit build
Too funny..I have been using that for years on my drum kits..Everything sticks them so when it gets dirty just wash it with mild soap and water and rinse with water. Then shake them dry. Don't use anything to wipe it cause it will stick to it!

were can i buy moongel. from plus i would be buying a rc speed boat on that water
We got ours from Amazon.com. We've thought about a speedboat too >:)
Nick Walters I bought mine on eBay...great stuff I use under walkers gimbal..
Painless360 thanks for the video...I tryed moongel..and works wonders
I will get some M/G
i use tha gelly like insole of my gurlfriends high heelz , an it werkz great cheap 2
+Mykel Plaskett Nice idea!
i have a question about my open pilot gcs. wen i connect my cc3d why dont i git all my flight gauges like i used to ? or do i juz need to re install ?
+Mykel Plaskett Not sure, I've had a few 'odd' thing in GVS and Cleanflight after upgrading to Windows 10...
i have had problems for tha last month with my mission planner an my openpilot . but i switched to windows 10 3 weeks ago an i have not any problens with it so far . my apm sitll will not git off tha ground i do not kno wut im doin wrong , so like i said i switched to my cc3d an that werks fyne , an i jus ordered tha new cc3d reveoution . i jus think im goin to sell both my apm's . i jus want you 20 kno i watch all your videos !!!!
Best of luck with it..

+Austin M No, Frank Zappa! ;)
why do people treat damping just like localized fat-burning? eliminating virtually all vibration everywhere else simply sends the oscillations somewhere else (they don't magically disappear, they go somewhere), usually to wherever your camera is hanging from. damping balls are a joke. make sure you don't fix a rigid part of your copter to another rigid part. rather, alternate between rigid parts fixed to soft fixed to rigid and so on. look to your whole machine's composition and not just where the camera is. localized damping is like saying you can get rid of a pot belly by doing sit-ups. use your wires to dampen simply by loosely touching them onto a hard part of your craft. heck, even zip-ties at the ends of the arms just hanging will give the vibration somewhere else to go and there disperse.
Hi Fullchain, I agree. I have a number of videos on things to check to help balance the different parts of the model. In my experience cheap parts are very tricky to get perfect, other problems come from the harmonics that can be created at certain motor RPM in the frame itself. A well balanced craft will not only produce better video but fly better, for longer than one without the basic balancing done.
After trying a number of mounting options for the camera I found that this stuff is a great, cheap way to remove that last problem by mounting 'rigid parts fixed to soft fixed to rigid' and removes the vibrations left after everything else has been balanced and isolated.
Happy flying!
I learned loads from you (specially with the tricky multiwii setups!), such an unusually logical mind, I thought to myself. So when I saw some of your videos with jello I was, 'AArrg wt?'. I kind of felt grief for you because you mentioned having tried several things (hate the idea that some jelly company is making money off of you when you don't need it lol), while I pretty much had to wreck my shit to get video jello. I never balance my props either lol but I won't be peddling that idea. Thanks for all the information you freely share on the tube, sir!
Hi Fullchain, thanks for the comment. Interesting.
I have found that some cameras are more sensitive than others and the 808#16 cameras I use are very sensitive. What camera are you using? Thanks in advance.
Totally with you on harmonics. A theory, something I gleaned off guitars: the lower the frequency of the 'sound' the rotors/props make, the likelier that there is more wobble. Similar to the waves created in water by hippos and elephants (?) when they let off a sub-sonic warp underwater, and of course the bass strings on a guitar. Switching to 4S and 8inch props wityh 935rev/m/v, the pitch of the craft is tinnier, higher. But not so high as to crack any hard, vibrating bits. maybe this is why the carbon-fibre 250's feel brittle to me, specially at the mountholes. The high-kv motors emit an unltra-sonic pulse that makes micro-cracks untiol something eventually gives. *shakes head* bwwuuu im getting deep... o.O
